Reality for thee, not for me - Lemmy.world

As a doomer, I’d like to point out that even conviction and imprisonment, do not prohibit him from winning the presidential election.
At at this point, pardoning himself is his only chance of staying out of prison.
Unless he gets convicted in GA.
Why Georgia?

Presidents can issue pardons only for federal crimes, and the Georgia indictment involves exclusively state crimes. Trump couldn’t even seek help from the state’s governor, because in Georgia, unlike many other states, the governor cannot issue pardons.

Georgia’s peculiar pardon system is bad news for Trump

Unlike with the federal prosecutions, Trump has no power to shut down the case if he’s reelected.

Ok but can’t he appoint an attorney general to drop the case?
